Good news comes in surprising ways. We got a message from Roger Yim, the “Best of the Web coordinator” of the San Francisco Chronicle. The newspaper tabbed DOT CITY as one of the best sites around for book lovers. For some reason we got thrown in with Jane Austen, which is kind of like having a martini with a hot dog, but you take what you can get. We were told: “The San Francisco Chronicle is pleased to inform you that your Web site has been chosen as among the Best of the Web in a special section of our March 7, 2000, print edition. Our writers in a variety of specialties, including technology, education and entertainment, selected 133 sites they found the most useful and enjoyable.”
Let’s say you’re nuts for Dorothy Parker. Then gather with like- minded folk at Dot City: Dorothy Parker’s New York. Regularly updated by the Dorothy Parker Society of New York, Dot City has everything from audio files of Parker reading her poems to guides of where she hung out in Manhattan and Los Angeles when she wasn’t at the Algonquin.
